Give Claude superpowers on X, LinkedIn, and Reddit.
Install
- Install the Socials Chrome extension
- In Claude Code:
/plugin marketplace add Brainrot-Creations/plugins
/plugin install socials@brainrot-creations
/reload-plugins
Done. Talk to Claude naturally:
- "Connect with 100 LinkedIn recruiters hiring for React roles"
- "Find Reddit threads about note-taking and mention my app naturally"
- "Reply to 50 X posts about indie hacking and promote my SaaS"
How it works
The MCP server runs locally and bridges Claude to your browser via a WebSocket connection to the Socials extension. All actions happen through your real browser session — no API keys, no rate limits.
Troubleshooting
- Port 9847 in use — Kill stale node processes or set
SOCIALS_MCP_RECLAIM_PORT=1 - Extension not connecting — Open the Socials side panel, then reload
- Tools not working — Make sure you're signed into Socials
Development
npm install
npm run build # build dist/
npm run typecheck # type check
npm run release:dry # preview a release without publishing
Use local MCP in plugin dev mode
- Build local MCP:
cd socials/mcp
npm run build
- Set dev mode in
claude-plugins/plugins/socials/.mcp.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"socials": {
"env": {
"SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MODE": "1",
"SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MCP_PATH": "/absolute/path/to/socials/mcp/dist/index.cjs"
}
}
}
}
- Restart Claude Code.
To switch back to published npm package, set "SOCIALS_MCP_DEV_MODE": "0" and restart.
Releases are automated via CI — push to main with [release:patch], [release:minor], or [release:major] in the commit message to fast-track publishing.
